MEP Element Creation

MEP Elements can be created using the Revit API.

Many elements related to duct, pipe and electrical systems can be created using the following methods available in the Autodesk.Revit.Creation.Document class:

• NewFlexDuct
• NewFlexPipe
• NewMechanicalSystem
• NewPipingSystem
• NewCrossFitting
• NewElbowFitting
• NewTakeoffFitting
• NewTeeFitting
• NewTransitionFitting
• NewUnionFitting

Other MEP elements, such as pipes, can only be created using the static Create() method of its corresponding class. Some MEP elements, such as ducts, can be created by a static method of the corresponding class (i.e. Duct) or by a method of the Autodesk.Revit.Creation.Document class. For these elements, the static Create() method is preferred.
